When apartment search and rent payment startup RadPad set out to engage potential users with new drone videos, BMV assisted in connecting the company with an ideal influencer – NBA rookie Rondae Hollis-Jefferson. Jefferson had previously been featured in stories across the country on his decision to rent and not buy a home on his rookie salary. Leveraging his voice as a subject matter expert, along with his engaged Instagram audience, RadPad successfully premiered its first drone video and drove downloads of its app.
After setting its sights on the U.S. market, Meitu, the $2B Chinese unicorn, turned to BMV to assist with driving interest and downloads of its Airbrush selfie app and new glitter feature. BMV utilized its BrandCirc platform to identify relevant influencers in the beauty and glamour space, as well as those that were indulging in the latest glitter beauty trends! BMV managed the campaign and secured influencers such as The Gaybeards, Daniel Chinchilla, Julia Kelly and Feral Create to take part in it through the key holiday period.
